Reply To: an app to solve the shidduch crisis

It could be accessed via dropbox, via a website, or via an app.

The point is that there would be a list, as large as possible, of people who are in shidduchim and a way to follow up on those who look worth following up on. Personally I think it should be just a list containing factual information; no pictures, no resumes, and no technology matching people up with each other.

There have been a couple of suggestions to get a haskama from Rabbonim. While that is a good idea, I don’t know that it’s necessarily the first thing that needs to be done. If a significant number of shadchanim thought it was a good idea and would agree to combine their lists into this one, that would be a good start.

To be clear, I am talking about actually doing this – this is not a purely theoretical conversation. So I would especially like to know what singles and shadchanim think of the idea.
